Hello all,

The time for Permanent Residency is soon arriving and I would really appreciate if some older members shed some lights to some queries.

First off, I'm a derivative Asylee and since my father has "appeared" inadmissible ( the same 212.a.3.b. thingie ), I'm really thinking about not applying for Permanent residency immediately following the fulfillment 1 year of residency requirement. The reason? Since my dad's inadmissible, the other family members living back home and I are inadmissible too ( hence, the other family members haven't received the approval on their I-730s). Further, I feel that this hold might get stuck somewhere causing some further headache for at least next 2-3 years. But my question is,

What would you do if you were me?

Then, the second question is regarding the filing procedure itself. My father doesn't have an attorney and we don't plan on hiring any ( especially since some knowledgeable folks in here have shared their experiences with the "uselessness" of attorney in cases related to 212.a.3.b ). But, should I decide to apply for Permanent residency sometime, at the end of next month ( when my 1 year requirement would be fulfilled ), do I need to do anything in addition to completing the form? Please note that I was already over 21 when my I-730 got approved.

I would be really thankful if you could share your opinions and expertize on my queries.

Cheers.

the Walker,

You got nothing to loose by apllying for your GC. If it is meant to be on hold, it will be on hold until the waiver comes. Postponing the filing time won't do you any good except the feeling that you are not on hold ..

Just file your GC and take a plunge. You don't know what will happen, give it a try.
Tell me what would be your benefit if you postopone the filing for some other time?
 
Do you know anything about Nunc Pro Tunc?

I was already 23 when I received the derivative asylee status and I'm 24 now. What is Nunc Pro Tunc anyways?
 
So nobody has any idea on Nunc Pro Tunc? Or is it just that nobody gives a crap?
